Key Democratic Party donor Tom Steyer is calling on lawmakers to begin an impeachment inquiry against President Donald Trump, saying that already, the facts "exceed standards for presidential impeachment for obstruction of justice" drafted against Presidents Richard Nixon in 1974 and Bill Clinton in 1998.
In his letter to Congress, published through Medium, Friday, Steyer, whose superPAC NextGen Climate Action spent about $100 million in the 2016 election, said the "clear and undisputed" facts being exposed call for an "immediate impeachment inqury" by the House.....

This dude is a 10 time loser. He dumps millions into losing candidates more often than a cow farts.
A president making expressing a preference about a potential resigned employee is a giant nothingburger.
It’s unbelievable the adult babies out there today. It’s really pathetic not to mention cringe inducing.
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA....the Democrat haters are just beside themselves. They have to “tolerate” a Repub President that is actually getting things done. Totally against DemocRat doctrine. (LOL).
The house of cards.
Don’t look at it.
It might fall down and bankrupt Democrats.
DEMANDING an inquiry is one thing. Getting it is another. I hope he keeps it up. The party will beholden to those types.
Let the idiots keep throwing money away on loser candidates. They’re helping fuel the economy for conservatives to enjoy.
They have very deep pockets.
When you donate that kind of money, you expect to get what you want.
He paid good money for those elected democrats and gosh darnit they better do what he says.
Don’t worry Comey’s boy Mueller will find ‘Obstruction of Justice’, that was always his job.
There are no grounds for impeaching Trump
This POS is acting to subvert the government and a legal election. WHY ISN”T HE BEING ARRESTED AND TRIED FOR TREASON? ?
Well, this bottom republican donor demands that Obama be jailed for treason, so there is that.
I guess when you have bought and paid for something, you get to demand the result you want.
Keep donating millions to the dying democraps, loser.
Dear Mr. Steyer,
You actually need to demand to impeach the US Constitution and the Electoral College it established to elect the president of the United States, rather than President Trump, whom you wanted to be defeated by Mrs. Bill Clinton. You also actually want all of the people who voted for President Trump because they are the ones who defeated your candidate of choice, Mrs. William Jefferson (aka Hillary) Clinton.
To quote former President Obama “you lost, we won.” Thus please go off an cry in your own little corner and perhaps think of why you wasted your money on her instead of backing another person....or had you already bribed her to do what you wanted, and now you know she can’t give you what you bribed her, via the Clinton Foundation, to do.

Tom Steyer’s Deep Ties to Oregon Corruption Scandal
Top advisers to billionaire Dem donor helped run group accused of illicit payments to Oregon’s first lady
Top advisers to the billionaire environmentalist Tom Steyer helped run a green group, financed in part by Steyer himself, that is at the center of a corruption scandal that could force the Democratic governor of Oregon to resign.
An executive at one of Steyer’s nonprofit groups and a political vendor who has received hundreds of thousands of dollars from the hedge fund manager’s political operations helped run the group, which is accused of influencing state energy policy through undisclosed payments to Oregon’s first lady.
The controversy centers on Gov. John Kitzhaber’s fiancée, Cylvia Hayes. She was paid $118,000 by the Clean Economy Development Center (CEDC) to advocate for environmentalist policies in Oregon.
Hayes never disclosed those payments, despite acting as an informal adviser to the governor as he pushed a low-carbon fuel standard for the state.
Dan Carol, then a strategic adviser to CEDC, helped Hayes land the position. He was given a $165,000-per-year job in the Kitzhaber administration
Kitzhaber is expected to resign today under intense scrutiny over the scandal. The scandal could extend beyond Oregon given Steyer’s involvement. Steyer has donated millions to a group that helped finance Hayes’ position, which could ensnare one of the Democratic Party’s most prominent fundraisers in the scandal.
Hayes was reportedly a fellow at the CEDC in 2011 and 2012, but as of late as August of last year, she was still listed on a since-deleted page of its website.
Also listed on that page was Kate Gordon, a member of the CEDC’s board. Gordon leads the energy and climate division of Next Generation, an environmental nonprofit group founded by Steyer.
Another director of the group, according to the website, was Mike Casey. Casey runs a media and public relations firm called Tigercomm that does polling and advertising work for Steyer’s Super PAC, NextGen Climate Action.
Casey reportedly wrote NextGen’s communications strategy for its involvement in elections in Massachusetts and Virginia in 2013. NextGen and another Steyer group, the CE Action Committee, paid Tigercomm $387,000 that year.
Casey denied having served on the group’s board, though he admitted to doing communications work for CEDC through Tigercomm. When asked why the website listed him as a member of the board, Casey said, “Best I can tell, there’s a cached page from June 2013 saying I’m a board member. I never was, as CEDC has confirmed to you. Not sure what else to tell you.”

I never was, as CEDC has confirmed to you. Not sure what else to tell you.”
CEDC executive director Jeff King said in an email that Casey and Gordon were never board members, “but were erroneously listed as such at one point.” He would not say who listed them, why, when, or what their roles with the organization were. The IRS revoked CEDC’s tax exempt status in August after it failed to file annual reports for three straight years.
Former CEDC board members, according to the website, include Andy Stern, the former president of the Service Employees International Union. His former assistant, Josie Mooney, is a strategic adviser to NextGen.
David Chen, a former member of CEDC’s advisory board, has hosted Steyer at events held by his investment firm, Equilibrium Capital. Steyer also sits on the board of the Center for American Progress, whose senior fellow in energy and environmental policy, Bracken Hendricks, was listed as a CEDC adviser.
As his team and others to which he has ties helped run CEDC, Steyer steered funds to the group financing Hayes’ fellowship.
Internal Revenue Servicing filings show that the Energy Foundation provided $75,000 to CEDC in 2011 and 2012. The foundation said the funds would help “build support for dean energy policy in the Northwest.” It told the Oregonian that it was supporting the fellowship specifically.
Steyer’s TomKat Charitable Trust has donated more than $3 million to the Energy Foundation.
Steyer is arguably the nation’s most prominent environmentalist financier, but other high-dollar donors to similar groups also bankrolled CEDC generally and Hayes’ fellowship specifically.
The Rockefeller Brothers Fund, a foundation that provides significant financial support for U.S. green groups, granted $25,000 to CEDC in 2012 specifically earmarked for its Clean Economy Acceleration Fellowship Program.
That came after a $100,000 grant to CEDC the year before, itemized as “general support.”
Jessica Bailey, until 2012 a program officer for sustainable development at RBF, also served as a strategic adviser to CEDC.
A former CEDC director, Aimee Christensen, also worked with RBF through her consulting firm, Christensen Global Strategies. According to its website, another of her clients was the Sea Change Foundation, which has quietly poured hundreds of millions of dollars into U.S. environmentalist groups.
Among those groups is the Energy Foundation, which has received nearly $65 million from Sea Change.
NOW you know what is behind Tom and why he doesn’t like President Trump...
I gotta say, I am loving life these days. James Comey, the moron, buffoon, self destructs in front of the whole country. And...thank the Lord, Almighty, the entire Democrat Party is on the same self-destruction mission...unabated!!!
How James Comey ever became the Director, of the FBI is voodoo politics to me. This guy could not my garbage out in the evening properly!!! Weak sister and, a political whore to boot!!!
As for the Democrats and their donors......they are in for a worse surprise and defeat then they ever dreamed possible, during the Mid-Term elections in 2018!!!
And....if Robert Mueller has any brains and common sense in his head, he will bring his inquiry to an immediate end by simply declaring there is nothing to investigate except criminal ,Hillary Clinton, the Clinton Foundation and criminal, Loretta Lynch!!! if Mueller continues on...he will end up as disgraced as his buxom buddy Comey now is!!!
